Cell Phone Saves Mans Life

Whilst cleaning out a freezer in the kitchen of his pub, Matthew Steven's chanced upon a spider. A large spider. It bit him twice and spurred by the rankling thought that his mate's wouldn't believe him, he took a photo with his cell phone.

Within minutes, his hand was swollen to the size of a balloon. The onset of the shakes and dizziness convinced him this was not ordinary huge spider.

Steven's headed to the Musgrove Park Hospital, phone in other hand. As doctors struggled to keep him alive, arachnid experts at the Bristol Zoo identified the culprit.
